Elon Musk backs a border wall as he plans a visit to Eagle Pass, Texas

Elon Musk announced plans for a trip to Eagle Pass, Texas, the epicenter of the Biden border crisis.

Musk was curious as to why there is so little press coverage on the crisis at the border. My guess is that they don’t care about the humanitarian and national security crises any more than Joe Biden does. They are all perfectly happy with an open border. They see future Democrat voters. And the effects of Biden’s neglect are historically horrible. The press covers for Democrats and Joe Biden.

Elon Musk supports a border wall and he thinks those who seek asylum should have evidence of their asylum claims before being admitted into the country.

‘We actually do need a wall, and we need to require people to have some shred of evidence to claim asylum to enter, as everyone is doing that,’ the Tesla founder, 52, said on Wednesday. ‘It’s a hack that you can literally Google to know exactly what to say!’

‘The (USA) border needs to be secured. This is not a partisan issue – even the elected Democrat Party leaders of New York are saying this is a severe crisis,’ Musk added.

He also clarified that while ‘Most of the (very long) border is super inconvenient… the convenient parts of the border need walls and that’s not hard.’

That’s not going to earn him any points with the leftists.

His comments came in response to a video of Speaker Kevin McCarthy claiming he won’t support funding for Ukraine until the border crisis is addressed.

Musk spoke with Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) about the border crisis and decided he would go see it for himself.

‘I spoke with Rep Tony Gonzales tonight – he confirmed that it is a serious issue,’ Musk wrote on Tuesday. ‘They are being overwhelmed by unprecedented numbers – just hit an all-time high and still growing! Am going to visit Eagle Pass later this week to see what’s going on for myself.’

Border Patrol agents have been pulled off the border to process illegal aliens. Reports are that morale is very low with Border Patrol and who can blame them? They didn’t sign up to be processors. They are the ones who protect the border as law enforcement.

The Mayor of Eagle Pass, Rolando Salinos, has declared a state of emergency. A document leaked by a Border Patrol agent shows that an unprecedented number of arrivals makes it impossible to do their job, which is to guard the border. Have you noticed more leaks are suddenly popping up in news reports about the border? That tells me that the Border Patrol and DPS have had enough. Three years of this chaos and destruction is more than long enough.

The number of Border Patrol agents has to increase, not decrease.

A visit from Elon Musk, perhaps as soon as today, will bring additional attention to the situation and that is a good thing. It will force the press to cover the border. The only way for things to get better is for the border chaos to be exposed and on screens everywhere for all of America to see. It’s the same as with Governor Abbott’s migrant buses. They bring a lot of press to the border crisis. That is the only way for anything to change.
